Last week I replaced my sunroof in my Q. FUN job!

Anyway, the replacement sunroof I put in either didnt have the rear drip rail or it was broken at some point.. When this sunroof was in my old Q it leaked a little and not surprising, it leaks a little in this car..

Is it possible to replace just the rear drip rail, can it be disassembled from the entire assembly? I have the old one but I broke the drip rail by accident so I cant use the one out of my old one and I cant tell if it can be R/R'd..

Anyone?

probably easier if you take out the front seats (10 min job) and have someone there to help you get it out, its pretty tricky getting that whole assembly out of the car.

other than that, theres nothing complicated about it, just takes a lot of time especially if you value the clips on your headliner

No doubt... I used one junkyard Q as a learning experience to figure out how to get to that drip rail for Wes... ended up destroying both of them to get one good part. Such is life at the pull-a-part

Speaking of... did you get that part ok Wes?
